“We are delivering a show that people are demanding. Now, we are seeing how much broadcasters and fans are committing to it, which makes this project very unique.”

Philippe Soutter, president at PGS Entertainment, added: “At PGS, we are always on the lookout for unique and exciting intellectual properties and Dungeon is definitely one of them.

"A funny, young adult comedy like this is a rare find - especially one with a built-in fanbase. Featuring great characters in the much-loved fantasy world genre, we think this cult hit will soon be a popular sensation around the world.”

Currently in production, The Dungeon of Naheulbeuk will land on screens by the end of 2015.
